Are you able to connect to the Bioconductor website from a web browser
on this system?  Is there a web proxy that is preventing R from
accessing the internet?  If there is a proxy, take a look at the man
page for download.file.

Also, I would recommend upgrading your R and Bioconductor to the
latest released versions.

Best,
